New Music: Goapele ft. Mos Def “Different” Remix
Okay, okay well its not really new, just new to our ears. This track was recorded back in 2005 around the release of Goapele’s third studio album, “Change It All”. It seems like this remix didn’t make the album; great collabo though. Enjoy!

This year the festival will take place from June 24th-27th and over 600 acts are expected to attend. Talk about music meltdown. A new platform has been thrown into the mix entitled the West Holts, where artists such as Mos Def, George Clinton, Brother Ali, and the Parliament Funkadelic are expected to perform.
Video Mood: Mos Def – Super Magic
Here is the latest video from Mos Def, entitled Super Magic. The video is pretty dull to say the least, but the beat is crazy. His delivery is also on point with this track. Let MMIM know what you think.

2009 BET Hip-Hop Awards Cypher
After watching the 2009 BET Hip Hop Awards last night I must admit that the only part that I truly enjoyed were the cyphers. Check out my favorite cypher from last night that includes Eminem, Mos Def, Black Thought & DJ Premier. Of course we know that Eminem killed it!! Took me back to the Eight Mile days.
Throwback Joint of the Week
This week we take you back to the year of 1999 with Mos Def and his hit single “Ms Fat Booty” found on his “Black on Both Sides” album. The production includes samples of Aretha Franklin’s “One Step Ahead,” which is a rare single to begin with, but the creativity came together to produce a hot track. I consider this song to be a sheer classic and still gets put on rotation. Share your memories that may surround this song with MMIM and readers alike.

Here is a new video from Mos Def from his upcoming album “Estatic”. Let us know what you think.
Mos Def – "Casa Bey" – The Ecstatic – 6.9.09 Video Mood: Two Words
I’m posting this video because I never knew there was a video for this song. According to Kanye, it didn’t get any play for a reason….”This video never got played because I refused to remove the titles on it. They said people will think a TV show is going off and I said that’s the whole point. Wow… even only 3 videos in to the game…. I refused to compromise my vision.”
Cover This: Mos Def “Say You Will”
I just love when artists step outside the box and explore the art of music – for example, Phonte of Little Brother, Kanye and now Mos Def. We need more artists that show their creativity. The art of music has no boundaries and Mos Def showcased that very well on his cover to Kanye West “Say You Will.” This is live audio of the song and is just pure hotness. Let us know what you think.
Video Mood: Mos Def – Flowers
Check out the lastest promo video from Mos Def entitled Flowers. UMM not to sure how I feel about this, but his album The Ecstatic will be released on June 9th. I hoping he brings greatness!!
